OCEANSIDE, CA — The recent rain storms lifted Oceanside and most of Southern California from 'Severe Drought' to 'Moderate Drought' and helped mitigate the impacts of the ongoing drought, but did not end it. This underscores the importance of projects like Pure Water Oceanside to ensure the future of our area's water supply.

The City of Oceanside announced this week that the Pure Water Oceanside facility is now operational and the first fully operational water reuse project in San Diego County. The project will supply 3-5M gallons a day of water to the Oceanside community.

Pure Water Oceanside’s water purification process uses membrane filtration, reverse osmosis and advanced oxidation. These treatment steps are a proven, science-based process that has been used safely in communities around the world.
